  1. The two youngens. I tried to be creative with one of the shots of Floyd by doing it in black n white and colour.
  2. Allways good when the landowner of the field you are attempting to get into says not to worry about the gateway or the field in general as long as we can get to the site then not a problem.
  3. Have you checked the HT lead. We recently replaced one on one of our 341,s as we had the same problem but if we moved the lead a certain way the spark when back to being the brightness it should be.
  4. Didn't do too badly on the dorset/south style but apparently i cut far too much out. The hedge was about 15 years old though. Not much billhook work but my hedge was apparently the most stock proof as it was so thick. I was told that that there was room for improvement but as i said to the assessor i'm not a professional hedgelayer, i just lay the hedge and weave it in. Asthetics don't matter to me.
  5. Cracking job there. Is that part of the Hardy way bridleway just outside Martinstown?
  6. That is some very lucky residents and just shows how strong the houses of that era were built to withstand the weight of that lump landing on what is usually a weak point. Much timber out of it or all for logs?
  7. They can get them built for you and they will fit them for ya.
  8. Nice stile replacement this morning on the side of a main road. All in preparation for the new stretch of trailway currently being constructed.
  9. Sometime in march all being well jon. Or april at the latest. Wont be selling the red menace/red baron anytime soon
  10. We were thinking of getting our truck fully valet inside n out then taking it down there without dogs and seeing what he recons to it ha ha. He gave it to us for just over 7k. With a fully galv chassis, snorkel, boosted engine, new front prop, new front discs, calipres, new brake master cylinder,etc,etc,etc,etc it will be worth near on £10k. Well it will be when it starts when ya turn the damn key
  11. Tim Rudkin is a cracking bloke. He wont sell ya a shed. And he sells the part ex jap crap quick as not to foul up his yard. If you get chance to have a look one day jon. Keep an eye out for a white soft top 90 safari with reg H301 CAM. That was our first proper landy as we had an ex army 2.25 petrol before that n the safari was sweet as.
  12. To give you an idea of how good RVS are we have bought our last 3 Land Rovers from them (90 safari soft top, Disco 1 300tdi and our current 110 CSW 300TDi). All in part ex apart from the 110.
  13. Its a bit of a treck from Poole but i was get in contact with Rudkin Vehicle Services. They are based at Clapton, Crewkerne but they are independant Land Rover specialists. If you gave them a budget they could source you a vehicle and convert to you needs and in budget too. Our 110 only cost us £7070 but would have been nearer £9k at a dealer. ::Welcome to Rudkin Vehicle Services::
  14. Did you go into the Kreighoff stand as my cousins husband is in there?
  15. Morning of burning up brash afternoon of log shifting. Was good fun shifting the logs didn't get any pictures of the van loaded as it was very very light on the steering.
  16. Need a poster "When the tents a rockin', don't come a knockin'"
  17. Just no Brokeback mountain stuff Jon. Ha ha you may be in my tent. Unless you can get a tow hitch for your smart car.
  18. Please be kind ha ha. This is my first fell with the rangers. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNXE2nYi3Bs&list=HL1360450427]First Ash fell - YouTube[/ame]
  19. First time Ash fell with the rangers. I normally do the scrubby stuff but was let loose with the MS341 to drop the tree. Not too bad but just a few minor adjustments.
  20. Ah ok. Are you on BBC West Country?
  21. Ah ok. Was the timber much good or was it shot?
